A sorceress of darkness and a perpetual shitposter/discourse junkie. 34 and ftm. Cringey millennial, but with the twist of being self aware. Punches Nazis.
I complain about my country a lot on this app but also what I like to do is just crack funny ooc jokes themed around my witchy, warlocky online persona for no other reason than I honestly just hope it makes someone laugh at how bizarre it is. I think the world needs more of that.
No one who actually saw people get sick, or saw the piles upon piles of Covid tests from doctors who had increasing numbers of sick patients denied this shit. While everyone stayed home and argued online, we witnessed the horrors ourselves. So fuck every denier.
I know a woman who was an anti-vaxer and a Covid denier finish her nursing license and take a job as a nurse while I was at my first lab job during spring 2021. Got word that 1 week after becoming a nurse she immediately changed her tone.
Not only is it not just Gen Z currently doing this, Gen Xers and millennials do it too, but this has been a part of work culture for many, many years and everyone who disagrees is either lying or a bootlicking ass kisser.
Honestly now that it has a pve mode, I may actually play it. My aversion to it wasn’t because of Destiny 2, it’s because I don’t like PvP or PvPvE games.
Gonna go ahead and mute this now and cap things off by saying: I do not have a plan nor a solution for the state of things. I just believe we need to change.
I’m not even gonna lie to yall. This should be… NEEDS TO BE… the FINAL fucking straw with ai. We cannot allow shit like this to keep happening. We risk losing our identity as a species. We risk losing our art to the machines. We risk cutting off new art forever. This isn’t good
THIS IS F*CKING DISTURBING!!!🤯
A leaked Anthropic document just came out in court. Their own words:
"Project Panama is our effort to destructively scan all the books in the world."
Next line: "We don't want it to be known that we are working on this."
They planned to shred every book on the planet, in secret. And they almost got away with it.
It starts with theft. Anthropic stole 7 MILLION books from pirate sites to train Claude, because their CEO said paying authors was too much of a "slog."
Then the lawsuits hit and they needed a legal way to keep going. So they hired the ex-head of Google Books and sent him to publishers to ask for permission. Publishers said no.
That's when they found the loophole.
Buy millions of real, physical books. Cut the spines off with a hydraulic blade, scan the loose pages, and throw what's left in recycling.
One vendor offered to destroy 2 MILLION books in 6 months. That's 11,000 books a day.
Now the insane part.. destroying the books is what made it legal.
If you scan a book and keep it, that's a crime. If you scan it and shred it, that's fair use. A judge actually approved this, which means the shredder WAS the legal strategy.
They still paid $1.5 billion for the stolen books, the biggest copyright settlement in history. Works out to $3,000 per book.
And the scans are locked in Anthropic's private library forever. Nobody outside the company will ever see them. The authors got a shredded book and nothing else.
The part I can't stop thinking about is that a book on a shelf lasts 500 years without power, wifi, or a subscription, and the AI it was destroyed for gets thrown away in 18 months.
They killed something permanent to feed something disposable.
I’m not even gonna lie to yall. This should be… NEEDS TO BE… the FINAL fucking straw with ai. We cannot allow shit like this to keep happening. We risk losing our identity as a species. We risk losing our art to the machines. We risk cutting off new art forever. This isn’t good
